Flow Induced Vibrations (FIV)

  • 1hr
  • Self paced
  • Trusted by professionals
  • Certification included
  • Industry standard content

Why take this course?

This self-paced course explores the causes, analysis, and mitigation of Flow-Induced Vibrations (FIV) in piping systems. Topics include flow-induced turbulence, excitation mechanisms, acoustic resonance, and FIV analysis per the Energy Institute guidelines. The course features video lectures, quizzes, and provides a certificate with PDH credits upon completion.

About the course

Working on piping systems? Learn about the cause, analysis, and mitigation of Flow-Induced Vibrations (FIV).
In this Self-Paced course, participants will be taken through: flow-induced turbulence (FIT); excitation mechanisms and critical systems, flow-induced pulsations due to side branches and obstructions, acoustic resonance, FIV analysis procedure according to the Energy Institute, typical mitigation measures for Flow-Induced Vibrations (FIV),worked example of flow-induced pulsations.
